Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has remained at the mid A-level since the last message.
NOAA 12759 continues to decay and only a training polarity pore
remains. It shall continue to be the target region for a further 24
hours, with possibility of additional low-level events.
The position of NOAA 12759 on 5-Apr-2020 at 13:30 UT is:
N28W09, ( 132", 540" )

Dear Collaborators,
There has been a small flurry of activity from NOAA 12759 since the
last message, the largest flare being a B4.2 that occurred at 00:32 UT
today. However the region continues to decay and now comprises only
bipolar pores. It shall remain the target region with further
low-level activity possible as it crosses the central meridian.
The position of NOAA 12759 on 4-Apr-2020 at 13:30 UT is:
N27E02, ( -29", 528" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at very low levels. NOAA 12759 was the source
of an ~A7 flare at 11:40 UT today but continues to decay. The region
has an extended loop system visible in EUV images and shall remain the
target region. Chance for an additional isolated low-level event over
the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12759 on 3-Apr-2020 at 13:30 UT is:
N28E14, ( -205", 540" )

Dear Collaborators,
A-level activity continues with the largest event since the last
message being an A6.1 flare at 07:26 UT today. The target region NOAA
12759 retains its alpha configuration but appears to be showing signs
of decay in its leader spot. Further A-level activity possible over
the next 24 hours.
The position of NOAA 12759 on 2-Apr-2020 at 07:30 UT is:
N28E34, ( -475", 528" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at the low A-level. The target region in the
northeast quadrant has now been designated as NOAA 12759 and is
classified as an alpha/A-type region. While it has a bipolar magnetic
configuration, only the leading positive polarity flux has associated
sunspots. Possibility for further low-level activity over the next 24
hours.
The position of NOAA 12759 on 1-Apr-2020 at 13:30 UT is:
N28E43, ( -579", 519" )

Dear Collaborators,
A-level activity has continued since the last message. The source of
the activity continues to be the target region in the northeast
quadrant. The region has a beta configuration with pronounced sunspots
but is as-yet unnumbered. It shall remain the target region with
further low-level activity possible over the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 31-Mar-2020 at 13:30 UT is:
N28E61, ( -741", 496" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity has increased slightly since the last message due to
the appearance of a new active region on the northeast limb. The
region has produced several A-class flares and appears to have a
bipolar configuration based on magnetogram images. This shall be the
new target region with further low-level activity possible over the
next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 30-Mar-2020 at 07:30 UT is:
N28E82, ( -840", 461" )

Dear Collaborators,
Solar activity continues at very low levels. The target region in the
northeast quadrant persists but has remained quiescent. The underlying
pore has decayed but the region remains bright in EUV images. No
significant change in activity expected over the next 24 hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 29-Mar-2020 at 07:30 UT is:
N22E25, ( -384", 452" )

Dear Collaborators,
Quiet-Sun conditions continue. A new bipolar EFR with a small pore has
appeared in the northeast quadrant. This shall be the new target
region although no change in activity is expected over the next 24
hours.
The approximate position of the target region on 28-Mar-2020 at 14:30 UT is:
N22E34, ( -506", 445" )

Dear Collaborators,
The visible solar disk remains featureless and quiescent. There shall
be no default target region again today, with no change in activity
levels expected over the next 24 hours.
